Today’s Happenings…
Students don’t forget to sign up for the Geography Bee. See your Social
Studies teacher today! Sign-ups run through today - Wednesday, November
19th. All those who sign up will take a qualifying test on Thursday, November
20th or Friday, November 21st.
The Woodland Band is Selling Cookies!
The sale will end tomorrow - November 20th and cookies will be delivered
the second week of December.
The Woodland Band, Chorus, and Orchestra are selling Southern Cooking Cookies. They
are $16 per 2 ½ pound box or tub. The boxes are pre-cut cookies and the tubs are
“scoop and cook”. None of the cookies are made with egg, so they are safe to eat raw. If
they remain frozen they will be good until February. The profits from this sale will pay
for each band student’s trip to our spring festival in Gatlinburg in April. All checks
should be made out to WMS. Thank you for your support!
Woodland was well represented at the YMCA’s 26th annual Model United
Nations Conference. Hyungtaek Shin, Ishan Sathe, Lany Sharara and Alak
Johnson won Outstanding Resolution for their resolution “Funding Iraqi
Oil Companies.” Performing a hat trick Emily Gwydir won Outstanding
Delegate for the third year in a row. In addition, the following students also
won for Outstanding Delegate: Ishan Sathe, Grace Crossley, Lauren Link
and Julia Thieme. Great job students! Ms. Fane will meet with all of her
students today.
*Parents please do not pick up your students in the Somerset neighborhood
at the end of the day*
We need your help at the intersection of Crockett Road and Volunteer Parkway.
Apparently there have been several close calls while students are crossing the road in the
crosswalk. We are concerned for the safety of all our students so please be aware when
proceeding through this intersection that children are present. Thank you for your help.
Early Dismissal Process
Parents, If your child is going to be dismissed early, please have them bring
a note to the office in the morning so that they can get a blue slip. It is the
student’s responsibility to leave class at the time on their blue slip.
Schedules change and students are not always in the class indicated on the
computer. We understand that sometimes appointments are made after the
student has come to school. In that case, please call the school in advance of
you coming to the school. Students are not permitted to leave their class to
wait for you, without a blue slip. Thanks for your cooperation!
